Fleet development
In 2022, we continued to pursue comprehensive measures to improve our vehicle fleet.
- These included the redesign of the interior, the installation of passenger information and video recording systems, WiFi and new paintwork. A total of 360 vehicles were modified and modernized, mainly for the Berlin S-Bahn (metro) and Elbe-Spree electric networks, as well as for the Oberelbe and Neigetechnik Thüringen diesel networks.
- We are further focusing on the procurement of new vehicles for acquired transport contracts. A total of 148 new vehicles were supplied in 2022, 57 of which were deployed through a leasing model. The majority of the new vehicles delivered (89) are allocated to the Berlin and Stuttgart S-Bahn (metro) networks.
Vehicle availability improved again in 2022. However, there were also delays and restrictions relating to the delivery of new trains. In addition, 86 new multiple units and one shunting locomotive were ordered.
